Hey Friends 👋

You do not need a degree in computer science to build with AI. I do not have one. I started tinkering after work, kept at it, and ended up shipping real things that people use. This is where I show you how, for free: friendly guides, the apps I've actually built, and honest notes on what is worth learning. That is the aim, to bring a little calm to the noisiest topic there is, and to meet good people worth building with.

Live

A morning briefing that writes itself

A daily email that is waiting for me before I start work. Toronto weather in plain language, the world news that actually matters, Canadian financial services headlines on rates, banks and AI adoption, what moved in AI, market movers like the Nasdaq and Nvidia, anything touching the consulting world I work in, and a conversation starter I can actually use that day.

An AI communication coach for hard conversations

A web app that runs you through realistic workplace scenarios, like a tough client, a skeptical exec, or a difficult teammate, and coaches your delivery in real time, then scores it.

Hey, I'm Mubien 👋

By day I work in risk advisory. By night I got curious about AI, started building on nights and weekends, and somewhere along the way shipped real things: a communication coach, a governance agent, small tools people actually use.

I don't have a computer science degree. That is exactly the point. If I can do this, the barrier is far lower than it looks, and I want to show the path, not just talk about it. Everything here is free, and I hope to keep it that way.
